The cadets of the Patrick Military In.
stitute presented very handsome ap-
pearance on dress parade last Friday
afternoon. They have been drilling only
short time, but executed the various ey-
olutions in very creditable manner.

Der l, 1887, beginning at 10 o'clock of the

We announced two weeks ago that Rev.
A. A. Marshall would preach in the Bap-
tist Church at Belton Wednesday night,
9th inst. Our informant was mistaken as
to the time. Next Wednesday night, 18th
inst, is the appointed time for the service.
Editor Magill, of the Hartwell Sun,
"hits the nail square on the head" when
he says: "We would rather be wart on
yaller dogs left hind leg, than to be a
pessimistic croaker that can never see
good in any progressive enterprise or
measure"
The average girl is now engaged in the
manufacture of slipper-patterns and
whisk-broom holders, which she will ex-
change on December 25 for tortoise-shell
fans, diamond earrings, and the like.
The average girl has good head for busi-
iness, after all.
salesday in Novem Der is always big
day, and last Monday was no exception
to the rule. The crowd in the city was
very large, but everything passed off
quietly. With the exception of one or
two tracts, the land offered for sale
brought very low prices.
Our clever young bachelor friend, F. T.
White, has given up the idea of marry
ing this fall, and has rented his house, on
McDuffle street, to Mr.. A. w. Adams.
Next year is Leap Year, and we believe
if the girls will ssplay their cards" right,
some one of them may capture Frank.
The Rock Hill Herald says: ''Messrs. J.
H. Whitner and J. T. Roddey have SO.
cured the contract for grading the G. c. &
G. r. r. from Rock Hill to a point seven
miles southeast of Rock Hill, and will
commence work in few days. Mr..
Whitner is from Anderson, in this State"
Paper coffins have been invented and
put upon the market. A man may now
build his house of paper, eat his dinner
out of paper plates, wipe his face with a
paper handkerchief, buy his wife paper
hat, and go to his grave in paper coffin.
The coffin may be paid for with piece of
paper and the death published in another
piece. There are few things more useful
than paper.

The merchants and business men gen.
orally of Anderson have unanimously
agreed to close their respective places of
business on Thursday, Oath day of No
vember, to observe Thanksgiving Day.
Therefore, there will be no. business
in the city on that day. Our
friends in the country should bear this in
mind, and not bring any cotton or other
produce to the city on that day.
The Edgefeld Monitor pleads thus:
"We have a considerable subscription
list, and there are very few men on it who
do not now owe us for one year. Many of
them owe us for two years, and some for
three. In the stringent times of the past
twelve months, our manhood and entil-
ity have forbidden us to trouble any of
our subscribers. At present the matter is
different. Money is tolerably plentiful.
And now the manhood and gentility
should be on the other side. And it will
be. We feel that we need say no more.''
We desire every reader of the INTELL1-
GENcER to read carefully the new adver-
tisement of McCully, Cathcart q Co., as it
contains information for the general pub
lie. These gentlemen have in store one Of
the largest stocks of general merchandise
they have ever brought to this market,
and if you will carefully inspect their
goods you will find that they are selling
them at remarkably low prices. They
are agents for the sale of the Barbour cot
ton seed and grain crusher, one of which
every farmer in the County should have.
Go and examine it.
Those of our citizens who visited
Charleston last week speak in the highest
terms of the grand old city, and the way
she treated her Country cousins" The
programme for the entertainment of vis-
itors was carried out fully, and was ex-
ceedingly interesting. While the crowd
was large, ample accommodations were
had for all, andno exorbitant prices were
charged. Charleston has done herself
credit, as we knew she would do, and we
feel safe in saying that if she repeats her
SCALA Week" next year, every one who
went this year will go back again and In
duca others to 90 with them.
